JC Results From Maneb Here

Malawi National Examination Board (MANEB) has released the results for 2012 junior certificate results

According to Malawi National Examination Board (Maneb), 118,448 student s wrote the examinations and 79,194 students have passed, representing 66.43 percent pass rate.

Maneb spokesperson Gerald Chiunda said there is an increment of 0.43 percent pass rate from last year.

“Last year, the pass rate was 66.43 percent and this year is at 66.86 percent. This means that there is only 0.43 percent pass rate increment,” he said.

However commentators have trashed the development saying 0.43 is a mockery to the country.

Executive Director of Civil Society Education Coalition Benedicto Kondowe said the 0.43 percent increment is a complete mockery for the country because it has indicated the country’s failure in the education system.

“It is a pity to have only 0.43 percent increment. This is a complete mockery to our country and on the same note an awakening call for us Malawians to trace the reasons behind the small percent increment,” he said.

This years exams has been characterised with leakages which the examination board conceded, but the president said government has no monye to electrify the development.
